It IS easy.

Stop private sales without background checks. Require licenses for a purchase.

We do it for cars? Not so difficult.

No crazy person should be able to decide he needs to kill people and walk into a store in a state that he doesn't live in, without any sort of license and walk out with a weapon he can then go blow 12 people away with.

SO many things went wrong in this case. So many times there were warnings that this guy was not right. And STILL, no way to stop him because the State of VA doesn't see the ne3ed for regulations.

I'm not saying do nothing seveneyes Sep 2013 #13

Right now nothing is being done Marrah_G Sep 2013 #14

That's because you're looking to failing regulations, not successful ones. Robb Sep 2013 #15
